There is a discussion often floated, Why Chennai alone has been taken for granted to implement the CARS. Few people felt that this CAS is irrational as out of the whole country only Chennai implemented this. Even we are ready to pay Rs 300 or more but we do not have the option of watching all the channels as rest of the India enjoys!!! ( I am not sure whether they are enjoying or succumbed to the exorbitant Cable rates ). But in Chennai the reality is different as most of the people in Chennai are happy to PAY only less than Rs 100 and enjoy the limited service (channels) offered.

If you are unhappy about the CAS ...pls votehttp://www.petitiononline.com/cas12345/petition.html

Ferrari's F1 Team has fired its entire pit crew. The announcement follows:

Ferrari has decided to take advantage of India's high unemploymentrate, and hire unemployed Indian youths from the Dharavi slumsin Mumbai. The decision to hire them was brought on by a recentdocumentary on how they were able to remove a set of wheelsfrom a car parked in the street in less than 6 seconds withoutproper equipment. Ferrari's erstwhile crew took more than 8seconds with the right equipment. This was thought to be anexcellent yet bold move by the Ferrari management, and, as mostraces are won & lost in the pits, Ferrari would have an advantageover every other team.

However, Ferrari's expectations were exceeded, as during thecrew's first practice session; not only were 'da boyz' fromBombay able to change thetires in under 6 seconds, but within 12 seconds had resprayed the car,filedoff the chassis number and sold the vehicle over to the McLaren Team!!

Last few days, I have been seeing that during the end of Sun TVPrograms, the web site is mentioned as 'www.sunnetwork.in". But I amunable to find the same.Even then, I think it should bewww.sunnetwork.co.in and it seems this also does not exist.

Also the DMK web site is thedmk.org which also does not comply withwhat our Union Communication Minister asked/requested to all. Also DMKcan think of some thing constructively to give positivie news to allTamil/Sun viewers.

Please go on read the following.

I would really appreciate if you would have changed the web site URLto comply with nation domain name like subnetwork.co.in. This wasmandated by Union Communication Minister and this way we can show ITstrength and be proud about India. I hope the spirit in which theMinister talked, might have been taken in the right spirit in Sun TVwhere he also has the hold :-)

Anyway Sun TV is the ultimate media to influence the people (even nonTamil speaking too) but do not get carried away as many neutralsviewers will be turned around opposite if more venom is injectedalways like Jaya TV. I think you have a right to counter attack butbetter show the good thing the TN central ministers [ irrespective ofpart as all belong do UPA ] are doing rather than saying because TNgovt is not co-operating. This is known factor to every one and noneed to make the propaganda. Also what ever, you tried to emphiase onJaya cases were not directly influenced the voters because most of theneutrals say that all are corrupted. So, leaving the corruptionpropaganda, what good things UPA has given to TN so far. I know TN hasthe greatest golden opportunity to grow if state govt also in the samepar with central.

Hence, the votes will do this in the coming election. Before that youcan not under estimate your alliances!! Let them also come in somenews in SUN TV. That way you can persuade them !! I have not seensingle shot (picture ) Vaiko recently..!!! Why this discrimination..!!

I remember this is a best example how SUN TV exploits thepersonalities for your sake!!! EVKS Enlongavan was being showedalmost every day in your news before the DMK and Cong alliance..Ifirmly believe that without EVKS, you would not have smooth sailing toCong alliance (Applicable for either parties). Since EVKS was verystrong opposer for JJ that made obvious choice for Cong as DMK. Youhave to show some glimpses of EVKS now also.. As I am a regular viewerof Sun TV, once the alliance was done..You just ignored EVKS. I knowwithout his influence the Rail route from Erode to Palani could notbe taken for study. Underlying reasons may be Subbulakshmi Jagdeesantoo.. But you rarely show them in the new.. At least, Sun news canhave some slot time for the UPA ministers good work and this wouldbring a good will among the UPA till TN assembly elections... This ismuch needed for TN growth...

Also, you have more responsibility than any other TV in India as manyviewers outside of India also watching it. I would appreciate yourfund Tsunami contribution and coverage invisual.. [ Audio never carried any positive news ..Sorry .. Please donot keep your propaganda to give -ve of JJ as every body knows her :)]
